More exhaust cans than cylinders? Don’t recall seeing a bike with that spec before.

Japanese custom bikes follow different language 
The bosozoku biker gangs often have exaggerated fairings and exhausts, rising 7ft off the ground and that spills into the scooter scene (which also has “bad boy gangs”
There is a thing called “takeyari” style exhaust (or “bamboo spear“) which are ludicrously long mostly that’s for cars and kaido racers.
The Tokyo low riders are my favourites, but ,”sufficient” often doesn’t apply to exhausts

There is an amazing amount of bent tubing there. As a retired pipe fitter/hydraulic system builder I am impressed. I have to ask -- are all the cans flowing exhaust or is only one or two active?
Is it a real picture
? I can see one more on the front wheel too😲

That is part of that style - they are meant to be ridiculous.
On cars they sometimes come out of the car and go back in again to exit somewhere else.
Some go straight up 12ft out of the bonnet or at crazy angles, others form words or symbols, occasionally obscene or Hello Kitty or other mad thing. Others caricature race exhausts in extreme ways.
6ft high stack with a star at the output end for example.
